Playing in Paradise #98

Happy Friday
everyone, we made it through the first week of 2013. I am not one for New Years resolutions and I don’tendeavor to make any changes in the new year
other than to stop over eating all the wonderful treats that appear over
the holidays.

I did not
craft as much as I would have liked over the holiday but maybe that is a good
thing as I am jumping back in with some fresh Ideas.

Playing in Paradise
welcomes a new Challenge team member this week. Welcome to Dawn, it is so exciting to have you join us. Dawn is our
hostess this week and has challenged us to use something new. I have to admit
this was not too difficult for me, I have been an active
online shopper this holiday season and I have lots of wonderful crafting
goodies to choose from.

Right before
Christmas I ordered an obscene amount of twine from
the Scrapbooker’s Paradise online store… seriously there is a large selection
and I think I order just about ordered 1 of every colour. I had a picture of the box filled
with all the spools but I lost it so I took a smaller picture of a few up on my
shelf.

I could argue
that this sweet paper is also new, I broke the seal on my 6X6 paper pack for
this card. I used die cuts for the two
sizes of balloons, then added some foam tape
to the background. I added the twine, pulling it tight to gather it and added
some little ties. I finished with an heat embossed sentiment.

this card is FABULOUS - I'm a hooty fan so this card just tickles me. It says FUN in a big way and the colors pull it together perfectly. I don't think we can appreciate all your wonderful layers and textures.
